Beihai Beach Hotels

5 minutes walk from the old street where you can enjoy a night walk. Lot of seafood restaurants, bars, and souvenir shops. The front desk is very nice and welcoming, offered us free breakfasts where you can find a really good variety of food. and added our wechat in case needed any help. If you go there Mr Yuan yuan shan at the front desk will surely make you feel like home. He is so freindly and helpful.

I extended my stay here because my flight back home was canceled. The entire process was hassle-free and in addition to that, I was gifted a christmas card from the hotel staff. House keeping came every three days because most workers we sick due to covid and the botel was short staffed. However, supplies like water, soap, etc were alaways available in a self service area for guests on the resident floors and if one needed extra assistance, someone was always availato offer assistance. My overall stay was wonderful and I hope to return soon!

My friends and I stayed at the Crowne Plaza for one night while transitioning to Guilin. The hotel was in a good location next to the beach, and we were happy to have good rooms overlooking the sea view. For dinner, I went to the Chinese restaurant at the hotel, and they had excellent service and food (the beef fried rice is a must to have). The breakfast in the morning was great, with a wide range of options available. It would have been nice for the lounge to extend its opening times as they close quite early, and we could not access it. Overall, we had a good stay and would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Beihai.

The reception staff is very helpful, although more English-speaking staff would be advisable as most of the staff does not speak English and it is a 5star hotel. I would like to mention Lisa who speaks English and was very helpful, providing useful information regarding hotel facilities, Covid test places and places of interest. Big up to Lisa! The breakfast buffet is okay, but the pastry choice is a bit limited and, generally, it feels that the hotel does not really cater for western guests (mainly Chinese dishes). The buffet lounge is full of light; it is very spacious and facing the seaside, which is great. However, the cleanliness can be improved as the tables and the floor were not cleaned quickly enough, and my table and the floor under it were greasy/dirty. The facilities are quite varied. The pools, gym, tennis court, steam room were used during my stay and they were in good condition. The steam room takes a long time to heat up though. The staff in the gym/swimming pool does not speak English at all. The table tennis room and some other facilities were under maintanace during our stay, so we did not use them. Overall, the hotel has more recreational facilities than most hotels. Well done! Regarding the location, the hotel is on the coast, but the sea is not swimmable there, so you can only enjoy the view. The hotels near the main Silver beach (for example, Crowne Plaza) are considerably more expensive (about 500rmb difference), so a 30-min taxi ride there (costs around 30 rmb one way) still makes the Furama hotel a much more economical option. The sea view from the rooms is very nice! Overall, it was a very pleasant stay and a late checkout was highly appreciated! My rating of the hotel is 4.5.

The location of the hotel is very good. It is very close to Qiaogang Beach. There is a cross-sea passage from the back door of the hotel to the beach in one minute, which is convenient for swimming and playing in the sand. The service of the lady at the front desk is very friendly. There is also a children's playground on the first floor. There are shared bicycles at the door of the hotel to go to Qiaogang. The port is only a few minutes away, very suitable for families with children; I will come again next time.

The room is clean and tidy. The housekeeper is also very nice. They picked us up downstairs in advance. We stayed in a sea view room on the 26th floor. It was very cozy. My girlfriend and I liked it very much. We will stay here again next time. It is also very close to Beihai Old Street and it is very convenient to go anywhere.

A very satisfying accommodation experience. The hotel manager contacted me in advance and arranged the room before check-in. The reserved family suite is in Building 7. The manager also thoughtfully provided the newly renovated double room with sea view in Building 1 as an alternative. After comparison, I chose the family suite in Building 7. It feels like home and has a good sea view. The balcony is very large and looks exactly like the picture. Because we avoided the National Day rush hour, there were not many people staying in the hotel when we arrived. We had a private swimming pool and it was great for taking photos. Special thanks to Manager Lao for his considerate service. The hotel has a free sightseeing bus, which can be used in the villa. The hotel is in Guantouling, which is far from the city. If you mind the inconvenience of traveling, rent a car in advance. It is not expensive to rent a Hongqi tram in Beihai. Just make sure to charge it when returning the car. You can charge it in the Sheraton underground garage next to it, which is very convenient. The hotel is suitable for people who like a quieter and more comfortable environment. They can enjoy private time away from the hustle and bustle. The reef beach downstairs is also great for taking pictures.

My review will be based of the fact that we came in the low season. Maybe be during summer is okay. Winter experience was far from pleasant. First of all the temperature outside was 8 degrees and inside the AC could barely heat it up till 13. It was cold during the night and the stuff told us “we can do nothing about it”. Breakfast was Chinese cuisine (poor and cold and not tasty). In addition they didn’t even have coffee. The stuff at the reception didn’t really know something about the city and we had to go to the terminal to buy the tickets and found out that it was closed. The toilet in the room was really small (you can see it in the pictures). You can barely fit yourself in. The good thing (for staying in summer) is they have outdoor swimming pools on each floor and the balcony has nice view and lots plants. Rooms are quite big. But overall we won’t suggest you the place in the low season.

The hotel is very easy to find, just between a road by the sea and the sea wall, close to the entrance of Beihai Ancient Street. The parking lot is downstairs in the hotel, and you can hear the sound of the sea waves hitting the shore when you push the door. The young lady at the front desk is very beautiful, the check-in procedure is very efficient, and she also warmly introduces the surrounding food, attractions and ways to play. She also presents breakfast, which makes people feel as kind as a spring breeze. The room layout is exquisite, spacious and bright, clean and hygienic, like a newly renovated one. The hotel's environment, management, services and facilities have the grade of a star hotel. Breakfast is good, or a sea view restaurant. A good night's sleep, the next morning decisively continued for another night.

The downstairs of the hotel is the sea. The room can see the sea outside the window. It is beautiful when the weather is good. It is very convenient and it is very close to everywhere. recommend! ! !
